I would not consider myself a breeder I just had my first season, and was able to produce a normal and 2 pastels. Yay Haha. I never thought I would be breeding, I always had random snakes just as pets but it became an awesome hobby. I bought my pastel male as an adult from these guys out of California, their name is Mojo Pythons. From what they told me they are fairly new but packing some serious heat. I'm not sure if they have a reputation already for their collection but I was referred to them by some breeder at this reptile convention in San Diego, he said that these guys might have some breeder males. Cutting the story short I exchanges emails with both Moe and Joe (their name makes sense now lol) and they helped me a ton, gave me hints and tricks, really awesome guys and I would recommend anyone to do business with them. So here is the big part they told me they have just made a big purchase for me that's a few snakes, but off the bat they bought 25 breeder females and 5 power house males. I don't know if its true because one of the snakes I didn't even know existed which is a "lucifer, hg woma, granite, fader, yellow belly" its not even up on world of ball pythons. Then they also got a coral glow pastel and a ghi pastel. These guys are coming big this season I truly can't wait to see what they are popping out. ( mojopythons.com) is their website if you want to check them out. Post up any companies you had good experiences with and let's give these up and comers a shot
